The Summer Solstice is the event that occurs when the Sun reaches its highest declination, or angle above the equator.
In fact, the monoliths at Stonehenge in England were set up to tell astronomers 2000 years ago when the Summer Solstice had arrived.
Whatever is tilted toward the sun has summer. So the southern hemisphere will have winter.
The earth is closer to the Sun in the southern hemisphere when it is summer, but during summer in the northern hemisphere the earth is farther away by many millions of kilometres . Although this will change gradually and in 13,000 years the opposite will be true .
Well it depends is your location in the Northern Hemisphere or the Southern Hemisphere? Well if your location is in the Northern Hemisphere then you will be tilted toward the sun. If your location is in the Southern Hemisphere then you are tilted away from the sun.
Great inexpensive patio furniture can be purchased at your local area Target SuperCenter. I was able to purchase a very elegant plastic patio furniture set from Target for $199. I love it designer items at inexpensive prices.
The sun is always 'facing' the earth. If the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, the season is summer, in the northern hemisphere and winter in the southern hemisphere.
When the earth is at the point in its orbit at which the northern hemisphere's tilt toward the sun is at its maximum, winter is beginning in the southern hemisphere.
It is Winter in the northern hemisphere.
it is summer in the northern hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
The southern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere. This is because Earth's axis is tilted, causing the opposite hemisphere to receive more direct sunlight during winter in the northern hemisphere.
When the Earth is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere is experiencing summer. This is because the tilt allows the Northern Hemisphere to receive more direct sunlight and longer days, resulting in warmer temperatures.
The Northern Hemisphere experiences winter when the South Pole is pointed toward the Sun.

That's correct! During the winter solstice in the southern hemisphere, which occurs around June 21st, the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, experiencing summer. This tilt causes the northern hemisphere to receive more direct sunlight, resulting in longer days and warmer temperatures. Conversely, the southern hemisphere experiences shorter days and cooler temperatures during this time.
This phenomenon is known as the summer solstice. It occurs around June 21st each year and marks the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. During this time, the tilt of the Earth's axis causes the North Pole to be leaning most directly towards the sun, resulting in longer daylight hours.
